Designer

Yngve Ekström

Yngve Ekström is one of Sweden’s most influential furniture designers and an important part of Stolab’s design history. Deeply rooted in the Småland furniture-making tradition, he combined function and craftsmanship with a profound understanding of the possibilities of wood.

For Stolab, he designed several pieces, including Småland, Palle Pall, Pinnockio and Arka – furniture characterised by carefully considered constructions, soft forms and a timeless expression. Several of his designs are still produced at our factory in Smålandsstenar today, carrying his design legacy forward to new generations.
